Anon What level should elite qualifiers compete?

[rlm's mom]

I would say that you would want to be more of a Level 9 if you wanted to do well in Hopes at that age.

Will probably have level 9 skills but competing level 8.

If gymnasts are getting “psyched out” by seeing another girl warm up harder skills with better form, then now would be a good time to teach them to be inspired instead. It only gets worse / better, as there’s pretty much always someone better. Eventually the athletes (and their parents) will learn that it really only makes sense to focus on yourself / your kid. It does take some time to come to this realization, though.

P.s. elite compulsory isn’t that big of a deal.

They could be competing Level 9 as well... as I can look at results right now and see some.

I’m sure there are some doing 9. In our gym they would probably do 8 if Hopes was priority. I guess that’s another example of uptraining and competing lower levels.
